Moss reminds me of Mark Brunell. That seems ridiculous but let me explain. Back in 2005 when Brunell threw 23 TDs and took us to the playoffs, he was completely, 100% healthy. He had no knee pain. Whenever the guy had the slightest bit of pain in his legs, he was no longer able to step into his throws or move in the pocket properly, and consequently he looked like a high school QB.

Moss is the same way. When his legs/feet are 100% pain free, he's a top WR in the game, because he can push off and change direction so suddenly, not to mention flat out burn dudes downfield. But way too many times he has some sort of nagging problem, a hamstring, a toe, a knee, whatever. He's never at 100%.

I don't have high hopes for him. I see him getting hurt for us at some point this season. At times he'll be great, and at many other times he'll disappear.
